Breakfast Topic: The clothes you wish you could wear

by David Bowers Sep 30th 2007 at 8:00AM

It happens a lot: you see some random NPC in the world wearing a certain item or clothing and you wonder "hey! Can I can a polearm like that somewhere?" You might even do some searching and find it's not available for players, only NPCs. Most often it's a weapon of some kind, but sometimes it's a particular set of shoulders, or a matching set of armor the like of which doesn't actually exist. Sometimes it's a unique item with a really powerful pizzazz.

I always liked the nifty scarf featured here on Baron Rivendare, as well as on the death knight pictured in yesterday's breakfast topic. It probably would be hard to make this sort of scarf work for tauren, but all the other races could wear it pretty well, it seems. It would definitely be a match for death knights who want to look the part, or anyone who wants that certain dastardly debonair look.

What items have you seen NPCs wearing that you wish you could wear too?

I always loved the dress a nightelf was wearing deep withing EPL towards the back near a hidden building.

Seconded! I've wanted those since day 1 on my Night Elf hunter, checking out the guards in Darnassus.

I've long coveted the glaive-type sword that the Night Elf guards in Auberdine have.

Gogey Sep 30th 2007 9:04AM

That polearm is the Grand Marshal's Glaive btw :P

And I'd have to say

The Ashbringer...

Some NPCs can carry wooden buckets. Always wanted one of those...

Sylythn Sep 30th 2007 11:17AM

From the release of TBC until probably forever, I will always want a shot at the Blood Guard uniforms, with those dual-blade swords and tower shields.

Draken Desto Sep 30th 2007 11:27AM

Arugal's helm and shoulders.

I've always wanted the Stormwind Guard armor, or even Theramore Guard armor.

It's the cleanest, most elegant looking armor in the game. I want it. I don't care if it's crap, I just love the look of it.

Wildhammer Sep 30th 2007 1:32PM

Wildhammer tattoos and skin tones.... And height.

JaceComix Sep 30th 2007 4:00PM

Loramus in Azshara.

I wish I could get my hands on some of the "Garb of Thero-shan", aka the ninja outfit. I've seen it on some Rogue Trainers and in WoW Model Viewer, but it doesn't look like it exists anywhere to be looted.

Jashin Sep 30th 2007 9:59PM

I honestly cannot see why they have not allowed people to dye/change their armor.

Its one thing to have a certain cool looking item. But its still going to look like everyone else.

wtb prismatic dye vial.
